Kat, that is remarkable progress.
Seriously.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Kat, that is remarkable progress.
Seriously.
Kat,
how wonderful at your daughter's progress.
Oh Kat, much love and wishes for ease to you.
And bless you for creating the sort of life that built the platform for Grace's incredible strides. She's worked hard, sure, but YOU made it possible.
Take those stats to truancy court (god forbid) and flip that lady the virtual bird. Screw her.
Fuck you lady.
This. This, so much. I almost want you to have to go to truancy court (but for the time and bullshit) to be able to tell them FUCK YOU. Grace's progress has been amazing. I remember her reluctantly-kinda-walking and then her racing around the yard, on occasion almost run down by Noah on the trike. And how she picked herself back up and gestured angrily (she wasn't talking much yet) such that if she knew 'fuck you.' that's what that gesture meant.
...More importantly, I remember when she wasn't home.
Bravo, Grace! You're a rock star!
All that in one year? Grace is such an amazing kid. And you are the opposite of a parenting fail, you are amazing too. I know you don't want to be given kudos for just living your life, but you and K have given those kids such a great life and you deserve kudos for it.
Fuck you lady.
Seriously.
Also WTF is she talking about? I'm pretty sure it's not truancy when it involves hospitalization.
I was coming in here to share the pride/facepalm that is Isaac. When I call the kids to dinner, Isaac throws an epic fit that he has to eat and can't play Wii until after dinner. Uses a few choice cuss words, starting with "dipwad" and ending with "fucking idiots." Plus throws punches. Loses Wii. Loses his last nerve. Cries and screams and shrieks for the next hour. Takes a bath to calm down. Sobs uncontrollably for 20 minutes in the bath. It's a bad night. And then as I get his lunch out of his backpack, I notice a note from the school. He tested into the Gifted program.
That's Isaac. He's smart, but poor kid seems to have inherited his Dad's impulse and focus issues and my Hulk-like temper. oops? Love him anyways.
Dude. Grace pwned learning this year.
mugshots vs. facebook photos.
Sadly, some of those folks looked better in the mug shots than their profile pics.
That mug shot site is mesmerizing.
